...feature of the day. They all got well away, and for the first lap maintained nearly their relative positions. On the second lap Parker lost ground a little, and Swan began creeping up. Parker soon fell behind, and it was evident he was suffering from the effects of a recent fall. Swan gradually but surely decreased the distance between himself and Sturgis. Sturgis rode a brave race. On the last quarter of the last lap they were neck and neck, and, as they came driving down the home stretch, the excitement was intense, the cries of each man's friends...
...about 2.30 P. M. on Commencement Day the august procession of the Alumni entered Memorial Hall to the tune of "Johnny Morgan."
